    My friend Bill's Mother was raised in a Sod Home in Oklahoma, (1901 to 1913) that her Grandfather built.
    She said sadly it'll never happen again, because in the 1920's the farmers burned off all the Indian Grasses that covered the Great Plains.
    She said so many new people moved in, and had 3 Bedrooms, and a bath.
    We had 4 bedrooms, and a path! (whispered to me, "to the outhouse")
    There are places that don't even have a path.
    So God Bless America.

    Another project done or close to it.
    The grass is looking great. Your company has done a great job with the lawn.
    Time to pull the docks and boat out of the water again. Do it before it gets too darn cold.
    Harvest is around the corner. Busy busy time ahead.
    Thanks Amy for the updates. You both are the greatest.
    Thanks.

    Yard is looking good. Wanted to share a tip I learned about mulch. If you put cardboard or several layers of newspaper down under the mulch you don't have to mulch as often. Bonus the worms do their thing and you get even better soil.

      I like bumble 🐝 🐝! But they do sting if provoked or angered! Our son got stung on his leg when he was 7. He and our daughter, 9, were sitting in the backseat of our 1986 Orange Dodge Omni, when the bumble flew in past my husband's head and hit our son, our son screamed, we pulled over quickly and dispatched the bee. We kept an eye on our son but he didn't have a reaction. I pulled the stinger out. I felt bad for the bumble! 😢

    For the record, bumble bee's Sting !
    Take it from someone who is alergic to bee's .
    I ended up in the hospital when a bumble bee stung me in the corner of my eye..
    Its was excruciatingly painful...
    Most people mistake carpenter bee's for bumble bee's..
    The bumble bee has the hairy abdomen and a yellow stripe...
    The bumble is more aggressive & has a wicked sting, whereas the carpenter is less aggressive & a much milder sting..
    Also , the carpenter bee will bore holes right through your house walls & do extreme damage if they're not exterminated..
